What Best Describes you?

Influencer Starting a Podcast

You don't need us to tell you that the best way to connect with your audience is to make them feel special, that they're getting something they couldn't anywhere else.

Building connections with listeners is our bread and butter: through exclusive content and intuitive monetization solutions that allow you to offer tiered content to paying members, Captivate can help you grow and consolidate your following through podcasting.

A Captivate account gets you access to our world beating team of experts, on hand 24/7, and our full suite of analytics, monetization and workflow tools. Together, we'll take your following to the next level.

Measurable Marketing Links

Your Marketing Links library is a convenient place to store all of your podcast-related marketing links, such as social media, monetization or podcast directory links, for easy access and also to help "feed" other parts of Captivate such as your podcast player, free Captivate Site, and Single Promotional Link.

Single Promo Link

A memorable link that you can direct people to so that they can subscribe to your podcast in their podcast app of choice, on any device. All visits to this link are tracked and you can even see which apps people choose to listen in!

IAB-Certified Podcast Analytics

As the podcast industry continues to develop and evolve, the one thing that we are dedicated to as a podcast hosting platform is of course, the accuracy of your podcast analytics.

We are passionate about getting closer to the people listening, not just the number of file downloads that your podcast receives and that's why, Captivate, is proud to say that we are IAB-certified as a podcast analytics provider.
